And there I was, minding my own bidness. And wouldn't ya know it, a Jet Star just pulls up and make me it's owner!


Oh man, such a good story! I think I'm going to try that...

Someday I may try to get it to look like new but for now it's in solid shape to get me on the water for now

Some people have all the luck!

That's a Jet Star. Jets have two forward facing seats, Jet Stars, back to back. Mine's a 1964. I wish it looked that good when I started!

Hey guys,
My brother and I got her out on the water today to fish a bit and see how she floats and such. She moved pretty well with the 50 lb thrust. Still haven't gotten a new water pump in the motor so Im not testing that out yet. It was a nice day to get on the lake.

I know this is an older post but I just stumbled upon it and was happy to see a familiar looking sight. This is our boat which belonged to my wifes father. Our work in progress. Just downstream from you in Minnesota, we put it in the Mississippi near Guttenberg, Ia. :)

One more reason we ask that old topics remain dormant. Jetstar, the original poster has left the building - Well over a year ago. Please do no reply to topics inactive for 90 or more days. Thanks.
